X2 (X-Men 2)
(Image credit: Fox)
Release date: 2003
He comes face to face with his maker, Colonel William Striker, who leads a night-time assault on Xavier’s school to steal the mutant children and build his own version of Xavier’s high-powered telekinetic machine, Cerebro. As the war between humans and mutants escalates, Logan evolves into a seminal figure to lead and guide the next generation of mutants.
The second film in the Fox trilogy also introduced two characters that will return in Deadpool and Wolverine:PyroandLady Deathstrike. While the latter only appeared in the battle sequence, there was a more in-depth dive into Pyro’s character as he turned from a loyal school student to a violent rebel with Magento.

X-Men: The Last Stand
Release date: 2006
X-Men: The Last Stand is one of the most important films in the franchise for understanding Wolverine’s motivations and heartache. In the finale, Wolverine faced his worst enemy, the woman he loved, Jean Grey.
As Jean discovered the true depths of her untamed power and ascended to her alter ego, the Dark Phoenix, Logan was burdened with the responsibility of being the only mutant strong enough to stop her. Under Magneto’s guidance, Jean is inhibited, set on destruction and unable to control her never-ending stream of raw power.
Logan’s conflict between stopping Jean or letting her destroy the face of all mutant and human kind, is a battle within his identity that he feels for years after these events. The consequences of his decisions haunt him throughout the subsequent movies; so this 2006 film needs to be on your watch list.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Release date: 2009
Back in 2009, long before the R-rated Deadpool was born, Reynolds made his first appearance as Wade in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. This was Logan’s first standalone film, following his early life and friendship with his half-brother Victor Creed (Liev Schreiber). Tracked across centuries, the mutant soldiers fight in wars until they reach the present day, and Logan is tired of the endless cycle of death, rebirth, and violence.
For an understanding of Logan’s backstory and his trajectory from bloodthirsty soldier to reformed mutant hero, look no further than X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

X-Men: First Class
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Release date: 2011
The prequel to Fox’s X-Men trilogy begins with X-Men: First Class. Though this film doesn’t feature Wolverine, other than a very brief cameo, it explores the early friendship of Xavier and Magneto in the ‘60s and the series of events that evolve them into archnemesis.
First Class offers more insight into the rivalries and prejudices that frequently appear within this franchise, as mutants fight for their rights to exist safely and freely in a world that wants to persecute them. Keep an eye out forAzazel, a teleporting mutant, who has been rumored to appear in Deadpool and Wolverine. The introduction to this character will inform the wider universe and context for the upcoming film.

The Avengers
Release date: 2012
If you’re new to the MCU, then it would be worth revisiting 2012’s The Avengers. The first team-up of Earth Mightiest Heroes is a touchstone within the MCU that provides a good basis for understanding the foundational superheroes within this universe.
As seen in the trailer, Wade is offered the chance to become an Avenger and be a “hero amongst heroes” in their timeline. So some context about this superhuman, super skilled set of individuals is a perfect place to start.

X-Men: Days of Future Past
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Release date: 2014
X-Men: Days of Future Past rewrites the entire timeline of the X-Men movies. Set across the past and present, this intricate film brings together both generations and eras of the X-Men from the prequel films and the X-Men trilogy.
Wolverine is at the center of this narrative as he changes events in the past to fix a horrific future that is unfolding. In Deadpool and Wolverine, the trailer teases that Wolverine saved an entire universe, which seems to be a reference to this film. However, his heroism came at a cost, as most of the X-Men are now dead.
After watching the X-Men trilogy and First Class, tune into Days of Future Past to have an understanding of where the franchise left each of the mutants after the timeline had been rewritten.

Deadpool
(Image credit: 20th Century Studios)
Release date: 2016
In order to appreciate the third film in the series, it’s time to venture back to the beginning with Deadpool. In 2016, Marvel re-wrote the character of Wade Wilson to fit more in line with the comic books and introduced this foul-mouthed, masked vigilante to the world with a tone entirely different from any other superhero movie on their roster.
Through Wade’s own words, sometimes in a direct, fourth-wall address, he revisits the events that led to his becoming Deadpool, from his time as a Special Forces operative to his cancer diagnosis and the rogue experiment that woke his mutant genes and left him disfigured with super-healing powers.
As well as this, the film also explores Wade’s relationship with Vanessa who he tries to protect, even when it hurts her the most and this becomes a core foundation of their trajectory in their sequel too. With graphic violence, plenty of gore and a self-conscious commentary, Deadpool is an ideal introduction to one half of this double act in Deadpool and Wolverine that offers a glimpse of what to expect from the threequel.

Deadpool 2
(Image credit: 20th Century Fox)
Release date: 2018
Naturally, there are major repercussions for this action, as teased in the Deadpool and Wolverine trailer. Wade catches the eagled-eyeTVA’s attention who are notoriously hot on catching anyone who alters a timeline, as seen in Loki. So, this sequel is essential viewing for context, or there will be some major spoilers and surprises in the third film…

Logan
(Image credit: Fox/Disney)
Release date: 2018
One of the most pivotal films to watch prior to Deadpool and Wolverine is Logan. The 2018 film marked a poignant end to Jackman’s time as the claw-cladded mutant. The film follows Logan in his twilight years, as his superhuman healing abilities fail him, and he begins to age and deteriorate rapidly. He’s also left to look after an elderly Xavier, whose dementia is causing havoc with his telekinesis powers, making him a more dangerous mutant as the days pass.
Arguably, it’s one of the strongest films within this franchise that marked an emotional end to Wolverine, which Jackman at the time thought would be his final appearance as this character. Ahead of Deadpool and Wolverine, Jackman has confirmed that the events of Logan and his emotional death will not be undone, but his character will be explored in a new way.
From the trailer it seems there are scenes at Logan’s grave too, and in order to understand the next iteration of Wolverine, it would be worth going back to see his former end too.

Avengers: Infinity War
(Image credit: Disney Plus)
Release date: 2018
If you have time, Avengers: Infinity War should be added to your watch list. This epic first part of the two-parter finale of the Infinity Saga boasts countless characters and integral plot points that have set up the following phases of the MCU.
In Infinity War, the Avengers set out to defeat Thanos, who wants to eradicate half the universe’s population with the snap of his fingers using the elemental power of the Infinity Stones.
Even with the might of the Avengers, who extend across generations and realms, it’s the most significant loss that leads half of the world to be left in dust. For every film post Infinity War and Endgame in the MCU, these two films are essential viewing as they determined both the end of this era and the future of the MCU.

Avengers: Endgame

Release date: 2019
Within the MCU, Avengers: Endgame was one of the first big-scale uses of time travel. Set five years after Thanos’ snap, the Avengers attempt a time heist to travel back and stop Thanos from wiping out half of the universe.
It offers an insight into how time travel works in the MCU with the use of Ant-Man’s quantum realm and offers an insight into how the world stands post-blip too. Both Endgame and Infinity War are essential viewing with any film set beyond this phase, as it rewrote the existence of the Avengers and if Wade is set to join this band of heroes, then potentially he’ll be joining post-blip.

Loki
(Image credit: Marvel)
Season 1 release date: 2021Season 2 release date: 2023
Die-hard fans will have noticed that the Time Variance Authority or TVA appears in the Deadpool and Wolverine Trailer. Introduced in Season 1 of Loki, this authority guards the sacred timeline and prunes any variants or timelines that don’t align with this chosen one. Loki from 2012 is plucked from his timeline and informed of the TVA’s existence and has to come to terms with the fact that his destiny is both set in stone and has been written for him.
The horned anti-hero found it difficult to stomach, that all his destruction was outside of his control, which led him to rebel against the sacred timeline and venture into the multiverse. It seems possible that Wade’s reaction could be similar, since this anti-hero has already altered time to try and control his own future.
Though we doubt there will be a Tom Hiddleston cameo, the best way to learn all the timey-wimey jargon that informs the TVA’s existence is to watch both season one and two of Loki.
